Using Japanese paper and mineral pigments, he expresses a sense of life and dynamism beyond the painting. Watercolor paper is pasted on slices of natural wood, a base is made with acrylic paints, Japanese paper is applied with glue, and the work is colored with mineral pigments. The work is affixed to a panel for protection and housed in an acrylic case. (Acrylics are 46.8x28.8x4.2 in size.) After a period of relying on the strength of black, he has been using acrylic paints with a lot of water, like watercolor paints, to create screens using the "nature" created by the "accidental" difference in drying time of placing, pouring and smearing the paint. I have added the "inevitable" to the "inevitable" by drawing in lines with a pen and creating an accumulation of lines. In order to express myself more strongly and deeply, I experimented with a variety of matiere, and arrived at Japanese paper and glue. By applying glue, Japanese paper shows a new expression. There are many different types and thicknesses of washi, and by applying glue many times, the paper becomes very hard and strong. The unique tints and different particle sizes of iwa-enogu, which are unique to iwa-enogu, are also attractive for their wide range of expression. The artist carefully interacts with the paints, boiling the glue and loosening the paints with his fingers. It is also an exciting time to see how the paint looks from the front by peering at the hidden surface on the back of the washi, or to have the paint cover the hemp threads of rakusui-gami. I want to express the "back," "behind" and "beyond" of what is visible on the surface. In order to create a deeper world, I needed to make Japanese paper three-dimensional. I would like to continue experimenting with various types of glue and washi. Recently, I have been incorporating driftwood from the sea and dams to express a deeper sense of life and dynamism with the help of the power of the materials. Feeling the sense of life created in the picture, I realize that I, too, am alive and being kept alive. I want to be the first witness to a world I have not yet seen. I would be happy if you could see the work that has been created through this transition.
